Terrible Service!! I recently bought a 2018 brand new Mazda Cx-5 in December of 2018. Come September 2019 my air conditioning was not working in the car. I contact the s I recently bought a 2018 brand new Mazda Cx-5 in December of 2018. Come September 2019 my air conditioning was not working in the car. I contact the service department. Being a student and working, it vital that I have a working car. I expressed that I would need a rental car because I am running back and fourth from work and school most days. They told me they couldn't guarantee that I would have a rental? Which was interesting because prior to buying the car the salesmen said that if it was ever brought in for warranty work, I would have a rental. So I arrive the day of my appointment, good news there was a rental available. As I handed over my keys, I asked to make sure that the recent recall was also taken care of. The service men responded with, "not a problem we will get that taken care of for you." Two hours passed and I received a text that my car was ready for pick up, quick right? Well, when I arrived he told me there was nothing wrong with my car. That they had tested it and the AC was working. He told me that I just needed to click the AC button. I was fuming!! The fact that he really thought that I had not tried to click the AC button?! You're joking me right? The fact he told me that I needed to click the button was beyond me, its September, did he really think that I had forgot how to suddenly turn on my AC after months of hot weather? That I didn't think about doing this? I 100% think that I was treated this way because I am a young girl. Had my dad or boyfriend brought this car in the response would have been completely different. Probably something along the lines of, "I am so sorry, but we ran a diagnostic and did not find anything wrong with the AC unit, if it happens again please bring it back in." Instead I was treated unfairly and discredited for my young age and being a female. After already walking away angry, as I got home I reviewed the service report, just to find out that the recall had not been done on my car. I tried to contact the dealer asking if it had been done and received no response back. I spent thousands of dollars at this dealer to be discredited for my age and gender, and the work that was asked to be done was not completed. Today was a complete waste of time. Now, I will likely have a not working AC here soon along with needing to bring the car back in to do a recall that I had previously already asked to be done. They have no consideration for their customers busy lives. I am completely understanding that sometimes the problem is not present when you first take it in, that things all the sudden seem to start working when you need them fixed right? I am understanding of that, it is that fact that they were extremely disrespectful, treated me as if I was dumb, and did not complete the work that was asked of them. More
Taken advantage of. So June 16 2019 I bring my new college graduate to this dealership for his first car purchase. The salesman was pretty good, one of their internet guy So June 16 2019 I bring my new college graduate to this dealership for his first car purchase. The salesman was pretty good, one of their internet guys. We landed what we thought was a great buy on a low mileage Subaru legacy, until we were led into the warranty guy's office. Folks skip that stop if you can. He will RIP YOU OFF BLIND!! This man sold us on a $3000.00 dollar warranty! Told us we had to buy at that moment or never. He was so convincing telling us that he bought the same for his own kids and wouldn't EVER buy a car without that one..YADA YADA YADA! Until he literally guilted my son and I into the signing. Overpriced by over a grand! So now we try to cancel it as we were told we could easily do, not so, we still have yet to see that refund. My bad for being a caving obviously vulnerable mother and sorry for my son having to pay that extra for this car. I feel so badly. The warranty guy is a callous car guy.. my sons first car experience? expensive and deflating but a true lesson for both of us on bad people out there. Heed my warning, do your research, be prepared for this con, he's great at what he does. Thanks Dennis Dillion for taking a advantage of a 30+ year Boise resident single mom and her kid, we wont be back.. More

Super personable and answered every q Though i did not end up buying a car from this dealership, I had a great experience. Todd Meyers was incredible. Super personable and answered every question I had. It’s hard to come across honest & transparent people when car searching. I felt at ease and confident. I will be coming back to see Todd for my next car purchase. All thanks to Todd! More
Service manager refuses to honor their own inspection! Terrible service if anything goes wrong, do not trust them! I took my car in and was told it was in pristine condition. Not a single scratch was ma Terrible service if anything goes wrong, do not trust them! I took my car in and was told it was in pristine condition. Not a single scratch was marked in my walk-around inspection. I get it back and it has some deep scratches in the paint that are very obvious so I immediately reach out to the dealership. After two weeks of leaving messages and being ignored by the service manager, I finally reach him and he says it doesn't matter what the inspection report says, the scratches were probably there ahead of time. He claimed that because I was from out of state and have 33000 miles on the car, I must have treated it horribly and who knows what it's been subjected to. Guess what? we both do, that's what the SERVICE REPORT IS FOR! What is the point of an inspection report if the dealership just ignores it? how can there be any trust if the document that proves the good condition your car was in before you handed off the keys is treated as worthless! This is my third Mazda and I've never had such bad service at a dealer before in my life. Avoid if at all possible. More

Ignoring Safety Concerns in Used Vehicles My terrible experience with Dennis Dillon started in July of 2016 when I made the mistake of buying a car from them. The salesman completely took adv My terrible experience with Dennis Dillon started in July of 2016 when I made the mistake of buying a car from them. The salesman completely took advantage of me and sold me a complete lemon. When buying a used car, you can't expect a perfect car, however it was as if they did not check over this car at all. After bringing the car home we found out the dash lights didn't work, the cigarette lighter didn't work and the driver's side window didn't work -- and that's just the minor issues. When I brought the car in to address these issues, they told me they weren't equipped to deal with the electrical problems, and told me I would have to leave my car for days with them to address the issue, and they wouldn't offer me a loaner car. After having the car for 3 months, the tires were shot and I had to completely replace the brakes after they failed on me. When I got my brakes replaced, they kept my car for 5 days and wouldn't offer me a loaner, saying they didn't do that. So not only was I paying hundreds of dollars for the brakes on my new car, but I had to pay for Uber to go to work, my doctor's appointments and anywhere else for that 5 days. Every time thereafter when I brought it in for service, I addressed a new concern about the car -- all of which went unaddressed. Including the worst issue which is the one straw broke the camel's back. My car, since I got it, refuses to go up hills. Any hill I take at 60mph or above, my car shakes and the check engine light starts flashing -- causing me to pull over and let my car cool off before continuing. So, any trip I take into Oregon takes me three times longer to factor in my car's inability to perform at high speeds or on hills. I have brought that issue up every single time I brought my car in for service, and it was never addressed. It wasn't until yesterday they say they finally discovered basically every fluid in my car was leaking into my engine. And, if I pushed my car anymore, they told me I would be risking blowing up my engine. While trying to get answers as to why this issue was NEVER addressed previously, the service member was EXTREMELY condescending and rude with me. Unfortunately, they couldn't fix my car's particular problems at the Orchard location, so they told me I have to take it to Caldwell. However, it's a little unsettling that they are asking me to drive my car all the way to Caldwell after telling me my engine is at risk of blowing up after a year and half of neglect on their part. When I asked for a written recommendation from them saying my car was temporarily drive-able, the service member told me they wouldn't do that. He went on to say they wouldn't even do that for a new car. So, I retorted saying, "Well, a new car doesn't leak fluid," he responded by saying, "You'd be surprised." How inappropriate is that response? As a dealership they do not stand by their vehicles. So he is basically saying, that any car bought at Dennis Dillon could have problems, and they don't have enough pride in their company to thoroughly check the safety and quality of their vehicles they are letting you and your families drive home in. I am beyond frustrated with the service, the neglect and the sleazy business practices of this car dealership. I have never been treated with such disrespect as I have at Dennis Dillon. Unfortunately I'm stuck with them until my car is finally fixed. So, let's pray my engine doesn't explode until my appointment, like they warned -- but of course, they say it's fine to drive with fuel, oil and coolant leaking into my engine. Thank you, Dennis Dillon. More

Watch out for "Promissory Note" Went in to buy my husband a birthday gift... a new car. What a mistake. The car is fine. Signed, sealed, delivered. 2 weeks later, a call from deale Went in to buy my husband a birthday gift... a new car. What a mistake. The car is fine. Signed, sealed, delivered. 2 weeks later, a call from dealership asking for $500 for some"promissory" note. I was in negotiations with final acceptance. and signature was not in "Customer Acceptance" box but hand written by salesman with an X for me to sign. NO money was collected or asked for upon signing final financing, other than $6K trade in. Done, with bill of sale final, out the door in our new car. All final financing is done deal with bank. I keep asking question, "Why did the finance guy not collect $500 upon signing deal?" No answer. Devious deception. Our car is financed through bank Dennis Dillon Mazda is deceptive and slimey. Calling 2 weeks later, for a down payment, after collecting final financing and trade in, is either deliberate coersion to buy at the moment or salesman's ignorance on what to collect at final agreement. Either way, they have trade in worth $6K and we will make payments on loan on time every month. I am currently in contact with my attorney. Do not buy a car from Dennis Dillon. Frauds, deceptive sales tactics and liars!! More
